A wide family of pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone ferric complexes: Syntheses, structures and magnetic properties

Abstract This study reports the syntheses and the characterization of 12 ferric complexes of pyridoxal thiosemicarbazone. The richness of the coordination chemistry of this ligand is highlighted by the modulation of its charge from neutral H 2 L to anionic L 2− , thus leading to a wide family of ferric compounds with charge varying from +3 to −1. The structures of complexes [Fe(HL) 2 ]ClO 4  · 2H 2 O and [Fe(HL)L] · 4.5H 2 O were solved and discussed with a particular attention brought to the intermolecular interactions occurring between the complexes. The investigation of magnetic properties of these compounds revealed that two of them are in the HS state at any temperature, whereas the ot…

Synthesis, Structures, and Solution Studies of a New Class of [Mo2O2S2]-Based Thiosemicarbazone Coordination Complexes

This paper deals with the synthesis, structural studies, and behavior in solution of unprecedented coordination complexes built by the association of a panel of 14 representative thiosemicarbazone ligands with the cluster [Mo2O2S2]2+. These complexes have been thoroughly characterized both in the solid state and in solution by XRD and by NMR, respectively. In particular, HMBC 1H{15N} and 1H DOSY NMR experiments bring important elements for understanding the complexes' behavior in solution. These studies demonstrate that playing on the nature and the position of various substituents on the ligands strongly influences the coordination modes of the ligands as well as the numbers of isomers in …

Spin crossover of ferric complexes with catecholate derivatives. Single-crystal X-ray structure, magnetic and Mössbauer investigations.

Complexes of general formula [(TPA)Fe(R-Cat)]X·nS were synthesised with different catecholate derivatives and anions (TPA = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine, R-Cat2− = 4,5-(NO2)2-Cat2− denoted DNC2−; 3,4,5,6-Cl4-Cat2− denoted TCC2−; 3-OMe-Cat2−; 4-Me-Cat2− and X = BPh4−; NO3−; PF6−; ClO4−; S = solvent molecule). Their magnetic behaviours in the solid state show a general feature along the series, viz., the occurrence of a thermally-induced spin crossover process. The transition curves are continuous with transition temperatures ranging from ca. 84 to 257 K. The crystal structures of [(TPA)Fe(DNC)]X (X = PF6−; BPh4−) and [(TPA)Fe(TCC)]X·nS (X = PF6−; NO3− and n = 1, S = H2O; ClO4− and n = 1, S = H…
